Post by: supraskater on April 13, 2006, 10:14:34 PM

Everytime I run adobe Acrobat, it always stops working within about 5 seconds of opening it.  I reinstalled it twice.  Someone please help!

I hope i posted in the right section.  If not, please move it.

Do you just need Adobe Acrobat Reader?
If so
Uninstall it completely from Add/Remove programs
Reboot the computer

Back in Windows
Try the free version of FoxIt PDF Reader Free! (http://\"http://www.foxitsoftware.com/download.htm\")
This will replace Acrobat reader and is a lot quicker when you try and open a pdf file
Please take a look
